Losing It Lyrics
Artist(Band):Rush
Review The Song (4)Print the Lyrics
The dancer slows her frantic pace
In pain and desperation,
Her aching limbs and downcast face
Aglow with perspiration

Stiff as wire, her lungs on fire,
With just the briefest pause
The flooding through her memory,
The echoes of old applause.

She limps across the floor
And closes her bedroom door...

The writer stares with glassy eyes
Defies the empty page
His beard is white, his face is lined

And streaked with tears of rage.

Thirty years ago, how the words would flow
With passion and precision,
But now his mind is dark and dulled
By sickness and indecision

And he stares out the kitchen door
Where the sun will rise no more...

Some are born to move the world
To live their fantasies
But most of us just dream about
The things we'd like to be
Sadder still to watch it die
Than never to have known it
For you, the blind who once could see
The bell tolls for thee...

Review about Losing It

Clarification for Mr. Daehsinep | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/21/2008

TheN foolding through my memory is perhaps the best clarification. Clearly the writer was reaching and striving for more, as in climbing the "writer stairs"........Or perhaps, it is best to read the liner notes from the published album. :)



One of their best | Reviewer: Helvete | 3/19/2008

Too bad they'll never play it live. This song came this close to having me in tears. Ernest Hemingway, one of the saddest historical figures. Yet made great stories. I forever salute him, and of course, Rush. May both live on forever.



Clarification for Mr. Andrino | Reviewer: Jack Daehsinep | 8/22/2007

From a literary and grammatical standpoint you are quite correct; however, having said that you must take Mr. Peart's poetic view into context. The word "writer" used in this sense is actually an adjective, and the word "stare" is used in the noun sense (ie; thousand yard "stare"). I hope that this helped to clarify things.

Almost Perfect | Reviewer: Ed Andrino | 4/5/2007

You have written here
The writer stare with glassy eyes
the word stare should be stares The writer stares with glassy eyes.

Poor writer. Other than that it's flawless. Thanks This bell tolls for thee. :)
